SHOCKING: Threat to Sonu Nigam's Life; Mumbai Police provides security

Bollywood Singer Sonu Nigam invited controversy last year on his much-publicised comment while bashing mosques that play Azaan on loudspeakers. This hurt the religious sentiments of the community and Sonu was criticised left and right for his insensitive comment.

And after a year, Sonu has been targeted by a fundamentalist group for the comment he had made a year ago. According to a report in Times Now, a fundamentalist group is plotting Sonu Nigam's assassination. An advisory has been sent to the police stating that Sonu can be their target and that the group is plotting to assassinate him.

The report further added, "Mumbai Police has been alerted by Maharashtra's Intelligence Department that the singer's life is in danger. The reports suggest that Sonu Nigam can be attacked at a public place or at an event. Thanks to the reports of the singer being attacked, police has given him special beefed up security. It is said that his safety is the extreme priority right now".

It was recently when Sonu had expressed his opinion that he was not okay with the idea of National Anthem being played in theatres or restaurants which didn't go well the people.

We are totally stunned by this news and we hope the singer is safe and fine!
